The interesting thing here is, both the Amiga and the

platform tends to come out of one of these two countries).
OK, when did the ST and the A500 hit the markets? Does anyone have
pricing for the machines in both Europe and the US at that time, along
with prices for a typical-spec PC and a typical-spec Mac?
It'd be interesting to see how prices in the two regions compared and
may have affected popularity of the various machines.
(At least in the UK, models of Amiga other than the A500 seemed pretty
rare - not sure if that was true elsewhere in Europe or not)
